Joan 4
1 Bada eçagutu çuenean Iaunac nola ençun çuten Phariseuéc ecen Iesusec discipulu guehiago eguiten çuela eta batheyatzen, ecen ez Ioannesec:
Now as soon as the Master was aware that the Pharisees had heard it said, "Jesus is gaining and baptizing more disciples than John"--
2 (Iesus bera batheyatzen ari ezpacen-ere, baina haren discipuluac)
though Jesus Himself did not baptize them, but His disciples did--
3 Vtzi ceçan Iudea, eta ioan cedin berriz Galilearát.
He left Judaea and returned to Galilee.
4 Eta harc behar çuen iragan Samariatic.
His road lay through Samaria,
5 Ethorten da bada Samariaco hiri Sichar deitzen den batetara cein baita Iacob-ec bere seme Iosephi eman ceraucan possessionearen aldean.
and so He came to Sychar, a town in Samaria near the piece of land that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
6 Eta cen han Iacob-en ithurria: Iesus bada bidean vnhatua berehala iar cedin ithur bazterrean: ecen bacén sey orenén inguruä.
Jacob's Well was there: and accordingly Jesus, tired out with His journey, sat down by the well to rest. It was about six o'clock in the evening.
7 Ethor cedin emazte Samaritanabat vr idoquitera: erran cieçón hari Iesusec, Indan edatera.
Presently there came a woman of Samaria to draw water. Jesus asked her to give Him some water;
8 Ecen haren discipuluac ioan içan ciraden hirira iateco erostera.
for His disciples were gone to the town to buy provisions.
9 Diotsa bada hari emazte Samaritana hunec, Nola hi Iudu aicelaric, edatera niri esquez aut, bainaiz emazte Samaritana? ecen eztié conuersationeric Iuduéc Samaritanoequin.
"How is it," replied the woman, "that a Jew like you asks me, who am a woman and a Samaritan, for water?" (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.)
10 Ihardets ceçan Iesusec eta erran cieçon, Baldin bahaqui Iaincoaren dohaina, eta nor den hiri erraiten draunana, Indan edatera, hi escatu inçayqueon hari, eta eman baitzerauquenán vr vicitic.
"If you had known God's free gift," replied Jesus, "and who it is that said to you, 'Give me some water,' you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water."
11 Diotsa emazteac, Iauna, eztuc cerçaz idoqui deçán, eta putzua duc barna: nondic duc beraz vr vici hori?
"Sir," she said, "you have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep; so where can you get the living water from?
12 Ala gure aita Iacob baino handiago aiz hi, ceinec eman baitraucu putzu haur, eta berac hunetaric edan baitu, eta haren haourréc, eta haren abréc?
Are you greater than our forefather Jacob, who gave us the well, and himself drank from it, as did also his sons and his cattle?"
13 Ihardets ceçan Iesusec eta erran cieçon, Vr hunetaric edaten duen gucia egarrituren dun berriz:
"Every one," replied Jesus, "who drinks any of this water will be thirsty again;
15 Diotsa emazteac, Iauna, indac vr horretaric, egarri eznadin, eta ethor eznadin huna idoquitera.
"Sir," said the woman, "give me that water, that I may never be thirsty, nor continually come all the way here to draw from the well."
16 Diotsa Iesusec, Habil dei eçan eure senharra, eta athor huna.
"Go and call your husband," said Jesus; "and come back."
17 Ihardets ceçan emazteac eta erran cieçón, Eztiát senharric. Diotsa Iesusec, Vngui erran dun, Eztiát senharric.
"I have no husband," she replied. "You rightly say that you have no husband," said Jesus;
18 Ecen borz senhar vkan ditun, eta orain dunana, eztun hire senhar: hori eguiaz erran dun.
"for you have had five husbands, and the man you have at present is not your husband. You have spoken the truth in saying that."
19 Diotsa emazteac, Iauna, badiacussát ecen Propheta aicela hi.
"Sir," replied the woman, "I see that you are a Prophet.
20 Gure aitéc mendi hunetan adoratu vkan dié: eta çuec dioçue ecen Ierusalemen dela lekua non adoratu behar baita.
Our forefathers worshipped on this mountain, but you Jews say that the place where people must worship is in Jerusalem."
21 Diotsa Iesusec, Emazteá, sinhets neçan ni, ecen ethorten dela orena noiz ezpaituçue mendi hunetan ez Ierusalemen adoraturen Aita.
"Believe me," said Jesus, "the time is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem.
22 Çuec adoratzen duçue eztaquiçuena, guc adoratzen dinagu daquiguna: ecen saluamendua Iuduetaric dun.
You worship One of whom you know nothing. We worship One whom we know; for salvation comes from the Jews.
23 Baina ethorten dun orena, eta orain dun, noiz adoraçale eguiazcoéc adoraturen baitute Aita spirituz eta eguiaz: ecen Aita-ere halaco adoraçalén galdez diagon.
But a time is coming--nay, has already come--when the true worshippers will worship the Father with true spiritual worship; for indeed the Father desires such worshippers.
24 Iaincoa dun Spiritu: eta hura adoratzen dutenéc, spirituz eta eguiaz adoratu behar diné.
God is Spirit; and those who worship Him must bring Him true spiritual worship."
25 Diotsa emazteac, Baceaquiat ecen Messiasa ethorteco dela, Christ deitzen dena, harc dathorrenean declaraturen dirauzquiguc gauça guciac.
"I know," replied the woman, "that Messiah is coming--'the Christ,' as He is called. When He has come, He will tell us everything."
26 Diotsa Iesusec, Ni naun hura, hirequin minço naicena.
"I am He," said Jesus--"I who am now talking to you."
27 Eta bizquitartean ethor citecen haren discipuluac, eta mirets ceçaten nola emazte batequin minço cen: badaric-ere nehorc etzieçón erran, Ceren galdez ago? edo, Cer minço aiz horrequin?
Just then His disciples came, and were surprised to find Him talking with a woman. Yet not one of them asked Him, "What is your wish?" or "Why are you talking with her?"
28 Vtzi ceçan bada bere vncia emazteac, eta ioan cedin hirira, eta erran ciecén leku hartaco gendey.
The woman however, leaving her pitcher, went away to the town, and called the people.
29 Çatozte, ikussaçue guiçon-bat ceinec erran baitrauzquit eguin ditudan gauça guciac: ezta haur Christ?
"Come," she said, "and see a man who has told me everything I have ever done. Can this be the Christ, do you think?"
30 Ilki citecen bada hiritic, eta ethor citecen harengana.
They left the town and set out to go to Him.
31 Eta bizquitartean othoitz eguiten ceraucaten discipuluéc, cioitela, Magistrua, ian eçac.
Meanwhile the disciples were urging Jesus. "Rabbi," they said, "eat something."
32 Baina harc erran ciecén, Nic viandabat dut iateco, çuec eztaquiçuenic.
"I have food to eat," He replied, "of which you do not know."
33 Erraiten çuten bada discipuluéc elkarren artean, Nehorc ekarri othe drauca iatera?
So the disciples began questioning one another. "Can it be," they said, "that some one has brought Him something to eat?"
34 Dioste Iesusec, Ene viandá da eguin deçadan ni igorri nauenaren vorondatea, eta acaba deçadan haren obrá.
"My food," said Jesus, "is to be obedient to Him who sent me, and fully to accomplish His work.
35 Eztuçue çuec erraiten, Oraino laur hilebethe dirade, eta vztá ethorriren da? Huná, erraiten drauçuet, goititzaçue çuen beguiac, miraitzaçue bazterrac, ecen ia churitu dirade vztaren biltzeco.
Do you not say, 'It wants four months yet to the harvest'? But look round, I tell you, and observe these plains-- they are already ripe for the sickle.
36 Eta vztá biltzen duenac, sari recebitzen du, eta biltzen du fructua vicitze eternaleracotzát: ereiten duenac bozcario duençát, bayeta biltzen duenac-ere. (aiōnios g166)
The reaper gets pay and gathers in a crop in preparation for the Life of the Ages, that so the sower and the reapers may rejoice together. (aiōnios g166)
37 Ecen hunetan erran haur eguiazco da, Bat da ereiten duena, eta bercebat biltzen duena.
For it is in this that you see the real meaning of the saying, 'The sower is one person, and the reaper is another.'
38 Nic igorri çaituztet nekatu etzaretenaren biltzera: berceac nekatu içan dirade, eta çuec hayén trabailluan sarthu içan çarete.
I sent you to reap a harvest which is not the result of your own labours. Others have laboured, and you are getting benefit from their labours."
39 Eta hiri hartaco Samaritanoetaric anhitzec sinhets ceçaten hura baithan, emazte testificatu çuenaren erranagatic, cioela, Eguin dudan gucia erran draut.
Of the Samaritan population of that town a good many believed in Him because of the woman's statement when she declared, "He has told me all that I have ever done."
40 Ethorri ciradenean bada Samaritanoac, othoitz eguin cieçoten hequin egon ledin: eta egon cedin han bi egun.
When however the Samaritans came to Him, they asked Him on all sides to stay with them; and He stayed there two days.
41 Eta anhitzez guehiagoc sinhets ceçaten beraren hitzagatic.
Then a far larger number of people believed because of His own words,
42 Eta emazteari erraiten ceraucaten, Eztinagu goitiric hire erranagatic sinhesten: ecen gueuroc ençun dinagu, eta baceaquinagu ecen haur dela eguiazqui Christ munduaren Saluadorea.
and they said to the woman, "We no longer believe in Him simply because of your statements; for we have now heard for ourselves, and we know that this man really is the Saviour of the world."
43 Eta bi egunen buruän parti cedin handic, eta ioan cedin Galilearát.
After the two days He departed, and went into Galilee;
44 Ecen Iesusec berac testifica ceçan, ecen Propheta batec bere herrian ohoreric eztuela.
though Jesus Himself declared that a Prophet has no honour in his own country.
45 Bada ethorri içan cenean Galileara, recebi ceçaten Galileanoec, bestán Ierusalemen eguin cituen gauça guciac ikussiric: ecen hec-ere ethorri içan ciraden bestara.
When however He reached Galilee, the Galilaeans welcomed Him eagerly, having been eye-witnesses of all that He had done in Jerusalem at the Festival; for they also had been to the Festival.
46 Ethor cedin bada Iesus berriz Cana Galileaco hirira, non eguin vkan baitzuen vra mahatsarno. Eta cen gorte iaun-bat, ceinen semea baitzén eri Capernaumen.
So He came once more to Cana in Galilee, where He had made the water into wine. Now there was a certain officer of the King's court whose son was ill at Capernaum.
47 Haur, encunic ecen Iesus ethorri cela Iudeatic Galileara, ioan cedin harengana, eta othoitz eguin cieçon iauts ledin, eta senda lieçón bere semea: ecen hiltzera cioan.
Having heard that Jesus had come from Judaea to Galilee, he came to Him and begged Him to go down and cure his son; for he was at the point of death.
48 Erran cieçón orduan Iesusec, Signoac eta miraculuac ikus ezpaditzaçue, ezteçaqueçue sinhets.
"Unless you and others see miracles and marvels," said Jesus, "nothing will induce you to believe."
49 Diotsa gorte iaun harc, Iauna, iautsi adi ene semea hil dadin baino lehen.
"Sir," pleaded the officer, "come down before my child dies."
50 Diotsa Iesusec, Habil: hire semea vici duc. Eta sinhets ceçan guiçonac Iesusec erran ceraucan hitza eta ioan cedin.
"You may return home," replied Jesus; "your son has recovered." He believed the words of Jesus, and started back home;
51 Eta ia hura iausten cela bere cerbitzariac bat cequizquion, eta conta cieçoten, cioitela, Hire semea vici duc.
and he was already on his way down when his servants met him and told him that his son was alive and well.
52 Orduan galdeguin ciecén, cer orenez hobequi eriden içan cen: eta erran cieçoten, Atzo çazpi orenetan vtzi cian helgaitzac.
So he inquired of them at what hour he had shown improvement. "Yesterday, about seven o'clock," they replied, "the fever left him."
53 Eçagut ceçan bada aitác ecen oren hartan cela Iesusec erran ceraucana, Hire semea vici duc. Eta sinhets ceçan berac, eta haren etche guciac.
Then the father recollected that that was the time at which Jesus had said to him, "Your son has recovered," and he and his whole household became believers.
54 Bigarren signo haur berriz eguin ceçan Iesusec ethorri içan cenean Iudeatic Galileara.
This is the second miracle that Jesus performed, after coming from Judaea into Galilee.
